I know it won't end all need, but won't Obamacare take over the work that some charities have been performing? Does this mean that United Way will actually need fewer dollars in the future?

It was learned dealing with tieguy.
He felt entitled and thought others must respond to his questions.

Speaking of tieguy and his views about United way, if he could post , he would say "don't wanna donate? Fine!. Just remember, you are causing children to starve to death."

Use small words and lots of pictures.

It's pretty sad when the only way you can get anyone in the company to notice you is to NOT give to the United Way after giving several years is something they brought upon themselves.
I'm not going to discourage anyone from giving, but after 25 years this company needs a wake up call.

Gonna shift my UW donation to NPR. Least then I might get a mug, a tote bag, or even tickets to "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me."

United Way has gotten my last dime. Last year I had donated a substantial amount and had designated a part of it to go to the local YMCA to send a disadvantaged youth to summer camp. Had designated $600 on the pledge card and received a letter from the YMCA in May thanking me for my donation of $252. Have made numerous calls to United Way asking for an explanation of the difference but have yet to get a satisfactory response.
Considering filing a complaint with the BBB. When my pledge card came up in the TP60 this year wrote Kiss My Ass across the front of it and sent it back. From now on I will donate directly to the charities of my choice and leave out the crooked middle man. If UPS don't like it they can donate their own money in my name. United Way will NEVER get another chance from me!

I can appreciate anyone, who wants to donate their hard earned money {or personal time} to a charitable cause.
But, why pay for overhead ???

Many people have donated money directly to only find out later that the "Overhead" was over 50%.
Most charitable organizations have much more overhead percentage wise than UW.
To each, his own.
When you donate your time, there is less chance of this siphoning off of the donated resource.

for what it's worth, designated charity is pretty worthless, they may have done you a favor

Donate your time.... you might just like it.
What you receive, cannot be measured in dollars and cents.

The 15% company match covers the overhead.
